Hi,
I am posting here after searching the French Forum "Espace Geckozone" here https://forums.mozfr.org/ As they couldn't help me they advised me to try an English speaking forum. So here I am
After a search here on the Forum I didn't find any related subjects. I hope making this new topic isn't contrary to any forum rules. Please feel free to move it if it is not in the right section.
I use a font called Roboto in my graphical identity (I run an architectural firm). It is quite common and works on any browser. It is declined in several different ways :
Roboto
Roboto Black
Roboto Light
Roboto Lt
Roboto Medium
Roboto Thin
In all my different softwares these font variants are accessible But in Tbird they are missing. It seams to me that this means the fonts are installed on my computer but absent in Tbird
Is there a way to make these appear in the roll down font menu, do I have to manually install them ?
Thanks in advance for your science and time

Re: Missing variants of Roboto Font
Is Roboto installed under Windows or does only the browser know about it? Look in the fonts control panel to find out. It's not realistic to expect Thunderbird to use a font that the operating system doesn't support.
I found https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto . Looking at https://www.guidingtech.com/57112/insta ... indows-10/ I think I understand how to download a .zip file with the font. It wasn't obvious just looking at the Roboto fonts web page.
